Full description
Join a real hunt for the treasures of theArgentario sea with ahalf-day dinghy excursion.
You will snorkel with your guide Nello, a real sea wolf. You will approach the majestic Cala Grande beach or theArgentarola, a small island off Porto Ercole. Both destinations will give you satisfaction if you want to encounter wonderful marine species.
Nello will tell you lots of interesting facts about the underwater world and between swims will offer you biscuits, snacks and drinks. Come and discover the wonderful Argentario seabed!
What we will do
We will meet at the Sadun salt pans 10 minutes before 9 a.m. After a short briefing on the activity, we will be ready to leave.
We will head for the Argentario' s most beautiful coves and stop off to snorkel with Nello, a diving instructor who is in love with theArgentario area and can't wait to tell us lots of interesting facts about the seabed above which we will swim.
We will reach the jewel in the crown of our tour, either Cala Grande orArgentarola, where we will encounter an enormous variety of marine species that we will learn to recognise thanks to our guide's indications.
During navigation, we will be able to admire the panorama of the splendid promontory dominated by Monte Argentario, which overlooks particularly azure waters. Between one swim and the next, while we enjoy the scenery, we can recover our energy with snacks, biscuits and drinks that will be offered to us by the friendly Nello.
We will return to the jetty from which we started after about four hours.
Who it is aimed at
The hike is suitable for everyone from 6 years of age.
